Considerable comment occurred yester-
day over tho fact that one of the daily
papers of the city saw fit to publish the
names OF parties who have been indicted
by the grand jury, but not yet arrested,
and also certain matters pertaining to
business before the grand jury, including
even a brief synopsis of a portion of the
evidence that has been taken. The
LEADER might have done likewise, but it
is believed and considered by those in
charge that these are matters which grand
jurors or others who know what the grand
jury is doing, are indiscreet enough to
disclose when the law contemplates that
they shall be kept secret, a newspaper at
least should have respect enough to the
court not to publish them, though the
temptation to show to the world that it is
possessed of a large amount of journal,
istic enterprise may he very strong.
THE LEADER, as heretofore. will also in
the future, abstain from publishing facts
coming to its knowledge which are at the
time court secrets, - and ought not to be
made public.

A Smart Hail Storm.

A very heavy thunder shower visited
Cheyenne early yesterday afternoon, which
was accompanied by a liberal fall of rain,
and eventually by one of the most severe
hail storms that has occurred in Cheyenne
for years. fortunately the hail stones
were not of very large size, and while they
came thick and fast no damage so far as
could be ascertained was done except to
the greenhouses of Mrs. Glaicke, Mrs.
Chafin and Mrs. Masten, principally by
the breaking of glass. Mrs. Glafcke es-
Inmates her damage at about $50, Mrs.
Masten about $25 and Mrs. Chafin at
least 800. Tho damage in each case to
flowers and plants is trihing.

The June Races,

The June races, which open on We'd
nesday. June s, and will last three days,
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, prom
Use to be very interesting, and undoubted.
ly there will be a large number of people
here from abroad, as special rates have
been granted by the Union Pacific author
tiles. The grounds have been put in the
best Of trim and condition, the track es-
pecially being all hat the most whimsical
could wish for. Col. T. W. Chafee,
president Of the fair association. and f.
w. Lafrentz, secretary, have devoted a
good share of their time of late
to- the work of putting everything in
proper order, and in this work they have
been entirely successful. Others belong
ing to the association have also aided and
assisted materially in the work. Quite a
number of the horses that are TO partici-
pate in the races are already at the fair
ground and are being trained and exer-
cised for the coming contests.

There was but little business disposed
of in the district court yesterday, for the
very good reason hat there was nothing
ready to take up. This state of affairs
happens in this way: In setting cases
for trial or matters for hearing, the court
usually at the opening Of the term sets as
many matters for each particular day for
the first two OF three weeks as can be dis
posed of on that day, the result being that
nearly everything is to be taken up at q
certain specified time, and parties are not
expected to take them up until that time
comes. 1t often happens that the matters
set for some particular day are disposed
of in a very short time, by reason ofhav-
ing been settled, continued by consent,
etc.. SO that the court expecting that its
time would be occupied the entire day dis,
posing of them. finds itself at an early
hour in the forenoon with nothing to do.
Cases that have been set later on cannot
be forced up for trial or hearing, and this
fact, as was the case yesterday, leaves the
court with nothing particular on hand to
do. Yesterday forenoon there was quite
an argument between Col. Miller and
Col. Bryan on a motion in the Roy-Brown
case, and during the day there were sever
al other little matters disposed of, but the
court for the greater portion of the day
waited in recess for reports from the grand
Jury.
Court adjourned until 9 O'Clock to-
morrow morning.

THE EFFECT.
What the Result VIII he to CattI.
When Fences Are Removed.

There is n thing which appears to be
quite certain, and that is hat the wire
fences are TO be remoyed-in fact, as
Judge Carey informs The LEADER,
nearly every ma aud firm that has fences
On government land is now engaged in
removing them or is preparing to do so.
Such being the case, there is but little
doubt that the fences will all be down
and removed before the season is over,
and what the effect will be on the cattle
interest is just now a matter OF much
speculation Inquiry among cattle men
and intelligent cowboys discloses the fact
that they are nearly unanimous in the
opinion that the cattle and the cattle in
terests will be greatly enhanced by the
removal of the fences. Its even claimed
that the great majority of the cattle men
were never in favor of fencing in large
tracts, hut that each individual cattle
mar was forced to put up fences simply
because others were doing likewise. This
is undoubtedly true to a considerable ex-
tent at least.
1t is an open and notorious fact that
when a severe storm or blizzard RACES
1.-THE cattle upon a thousand hills" will
drift with the storm, and if there are no
fences to hem them in they will generally
get through with but small loss. On the
other hand, If their progress is INSTRUCTED
by fences the cattle will huddle together
and eventually succumb to the cold and
storm.
After all, things appear to work to the
best advantage of the great leading indus
try of Wyoming.

next ten yes-s. They must exert an ex-
oeedingiy quieung influence. It is sur
prisiDg that the British Government does
not order large number Of them for Ire
land, for certainly it Is better to Calling q
man than murder him by the slow processes
TO which Editor o. Brien Is being subject
ed for exercising free speech under the
provisions Of the British constitution. 1t
will be observed that one Calling is equal
to 100 men, or q whole company of SOL
diers, and can be operated by three men.
This being true, the Calling comes in as
another labor saving machine, and as 1t
can discharge 900 shots a minute. or 80
shots second, and kill man at the dis
lance of q mile, one of these engines OF de-
struction is far superior to an ordinary
company of soldiers, though perhaps not
quite rs pretty on parade. There would
be less chance for plumss, epaulets, q ashing
swords. and all else that pertains to pomp
and parade, but for quieting people who
express the wrong doctrines, ideas and
opinions, it would act as an opiate of tre-
mendous power.

TIE ANARCHISTS.

Governor 0giesby has resched q conclu-
sion in the case of the Anarchists. 1t is,
that Spies, Parsons, Engle and Fischer
shall be hanged, and that the sentence
sgainst Fielden and Schwab shall be com.
muted to imprisonment for life. Lingg,
having taken his own lie, is out OF the
way, and il does not matter therefore,
what would have been the action of the
Governor in his case. AS the case stands,
four of the Anarchists will he hanged to-
day.
1t is useless TO attempt any review OF
the case. That has been done by the
courts, and ye. the discussion will go
forward. It will De asked, why commute
the sentence OF two? All were guilty, said
the courts, all were sentenced to be hang
ed By the courts bu. al says.the Governor,
were not equally guilty. Be that as II may,
the courts taid all were sufficiently guilty
to be hanged. The action Of the Governor
of illinois presents the case Of the Anarch.
ISIS to the country in the worst possible
form. II satisfes nobody. II puts the
question to the world with fearful en-
phasis. Did the Anarchists have a fair

the good OF society. Those who did not
know the world by actual contest, learned
ii by the drama.
1t were folly to assume that nothing OBJ
jectionable ever appeared on the
sisge-and equally SO, to say that
the pulpit is infsllible. The point
is, that the church recognizes the
fact that there Is something good and
wholesome in the drama, the stage, and
that is in the right direction. 1t demon
strates that the world of mankind is NOV
ing on an ascending grade, moving up to
a higher plane. 1t is supreme folly to
lombard the drama. 1t has its place
in the grand army OF progress, nor can it
be dislodged. DR.. Holland takes the cor
rect view of the situation. The draraa cd
ucates, elevates and amusss, and of all en-
tertainments is probably the most useful
ano beneicent, To eliminate errors is in
order. To croak Is supreme folly. The
worle moves in spite of cranks.

;harged that the seven Anarchists
entenced to be hanged were conspirstors
engaged in o conspiracy to resist the law,
The officers Of the law to the death. They
we're tried together. The crimes OF each
were the crimes Of all. The courts disoov-
cred no distinction. The Supreme Court
of Illinois confirmed every proceeding OF
the lower court-veydlct and sentence.
Governor 0glesby. however, finds that two
of the condemned men, Flelden and
schwab. were not guilty as were the others,
or were less guilty, and this action raises
the question, not only Of fair trial, an
honest verdict and a righteous sentence,
but the integrity, the scumen, the legal
ability of the Supreme Court
OF Illinois. If Governor Oglesby had let
the law take lie course, or II he had COM
muted the sentence of all, no such ques-
tions as we have suggested could have
arisen. People might have been pleased
or displensed, but the fairness of the trial
and she righteousness of the sentence could
not have beeS called in question. The Gov
sruor could have said; 1.-THE trial was fair,
the condemnation just, bat it is my pre-
rogative to exercise mercy" But now he
says virtually, 81 find the court, in saying
all were equally guilty, made a mistake"
and In saying that. the Governor says tie
court erred in lis sebt encs, and an en-
ror In the sentence is an error in
the verdict, and error in the verdict
is an erroc 10 the trial snc 1t must be re-
membered tbat as they were all tried to-
gether, the crimes of each being the crimes
of all, that an error in the case of one or
two becomes an error in the case of all.
Indeed, 1t was one ease, and the Governor
having found upon examination that two
OF the condemned men were not sufficient
ly guilty to be banged. could, with emil
nent pTopriety, have committed the SEN
tenes Of all.
We do not care to discuss the act of
Governor 0glesby In ALI of its phases end
bearings, 90 it is now presented to the
public. II he should furnish to the press
his reasons for his action, he may be able
to vindicate its reasonableness, but at this
writing il occurs to our mind that the
action of the Illinois Exicuteve seriously
complicatesa matter which from the first
has been fruitful of reflections hitherto
unknown in political, judicial and indus
trial affairs in this country.
